  • Abstract
    Educational mobile games can not only stimulate a child´s interest in learning but also can promote and increase language development, critical thinking, emotional development, intelligence, and imagination. Therefore, educational games could be seen as having an important role to play in a child´s development. This paper is an in-depth analysis on the effects of educational mobile games and the application and use of said games at home and abroad as well as the research on the cognitive developments of preschool children. Using Piaget´s theory of cognitive development as its foundation, this analysis summarizes the idea that the design of interactive games has an important guiding significance in children´s cognitive development.
